Sure, no high hollow, but is the Charisma essentially the fabled high performance Delica?
More like a high performance letter opener, but I dig it. I had a slip joint letter opener I bought at a bazaar in the Middle East that looked very similar.

Re: Spyderco Amsterdam Meet 2024 Report

I really like k390 so I think I will really like 15V, based on the information on the forums.

Good excuse to get my first para 3.

:rofl AI is so ignorant and morally bankrupt you just have to laugh. Anyone trusting AI to make important decisions does not have a full deck. https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1764857568952766693 Haha, at least (for now) this is some good comedy.

Re: AI art knows Spyderco

How do you feel about structures or bridges “designed” by an “AI?” Ambivalent. Are you concerned the software will make more mistakes than humans? Humans make a lot of mistakes. Such a strange turn this thread took. Is everyone in some kind of mad panic because of some software hat tricks all of a ...

Re: AI art knows Spyderco

The fundamental question people should be asking is: Is it net positive or net negative? Just be honest with yourself when answering this. I hardly see any positive. It's a new fangled contraption so everyone wants to try it. As I said, I tried it and it is an above average summary device for topic...

Re: AI art knows Spyderco

I think they made a movie trilogy about all that AI stuff. I think part one was “the terminator,” part two was “the matrix,” and part three was “idiocracy.”

Re: Corrosion Reports

I did see it. I didn’t mean to single out your comment when quoting you, only addressing the latest in regards to that specific corrosion picture. I brought it up exactly for the reason you thought was interesting. Given the background provided by R100 I think there is good chance that there was moi...

Re: Corrosion Reports

I think Vamais is right. I've also had corrosion on my Sekis liners. It seems to start out in the cutouts towards the corners. Just enough to trap moisture and enough exposure for oxygen. As Vivi brought up, I have not seen any on black coated liners. I don't think the liners are DLC coated, rather...
